Let’s face it: You’d rather watch The Emoji Movie than do burpees. But fitness tools can be the nudge you need to make your workout more motivating and more fun.

Words of motivation

Take your training to the next level with an AI personal trainer. Vi is more than just headphones. It tracks your heart rate, there’s an app to track your fitness progress, and it provides real-time coaching as you exercise (letting you know to pick up the intensity to get into the fat-burning zone or to take a moment for meditation, for example).

Recovery is our favourite part of working out

Just as important as doing a mix of cardio and strength training when it comes to a well balanced fitness regimen is getting enough sleep. The foam in this mattress is designed to minimize motion transfer, meaning you’ll be less likely to be woken up by your partner getting up to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night. Uninterrupted sleep for the win!

This is an earful

When training for a triathlon, I realized how boring it can be to have nothing but the pool bottom to look at lap after lap. Listening to a great playlist while swimming back and forth is a good way to stave off boredom, and research has found that listening to music while swimming can make you faster.
